In
about 1927, the Greater Muskegon Chamber of Commerce launched a campaign
to establish a public airport in Muskegon County. Muskegon County
Airport is a product of that campaign. In 1931, the County Board of
Commissioners had the first portion of the original Terminal Building
constructed at the north-east end of former Runway 7-25 as a WPA Project
at a cost to the County of an estimated $12,000.
